I was at the taping Wednesday, and he was brilliant. I've never seen Whoopi laugh so hard (and this was a whole show full of comics).
He and Whoopi were talking during the break, and he said later that she'd said he had to come back and co-host sometime . . . and he's doing it next Thursday!

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Wasn't he?
(I wish I'd known. You'd think I'd've noticed someone in a long black wig, with a hook . . .)

Posted: 7/23/10 at 12:33pmWas he on today??? I watched Colin Quinn and could only handle about two seconds of that chortly churchy lady before I turned it off.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

HAH. No, Boris Karloff wasn't available to go with me.

He's about three-quarters of the way through. The Star Trek stuff was hysterical.
It's online now.

Posted: 7/25/10 at 9:10amI've heard his Star Trek routine before but it is still pretty funny. I like him. He is good people.

Posted: 7/25/10 at 7:35pmJust what we need--another flamboyant fag. He is as bad as Mario Cantone, Sean Hayes, etc. So to get on TV you have to be 'fabulous' huh?
Do you know what happens when you let Veal Prince Orloff sit in an oven too long?

So speaks the model of masculinity who posts drooling messages about how hot the guys are on "The Price Is Right."

fflagg likes the closet cases and sideburned poster boys from 35 years ago.
If you don't look like the ideal face on a role of toilet paper, you just don't measure up.
Even if most of the "Marlboro Men" and "Bounty Boys" are dead of cancer now.

He's so adorable. I loved him on Desperate Housewives and in Connie & Carla.
"I'm 'N Cream. I hate my name!" hahahahahaha

I think I saw fflagg's face on a PIECE of toilet paper once.
It was stuck to my shoe.

Not to threadjack, but ffagg is truly my least favorite poster. What a waste of cyber space. I can only imagine what an absolute horror of a human being he is in real life.
Back to Alec Mapa, an out, proud gay man who has worked tirelessly for countless GLBT causes and has recently adopted a child who desperately needed love and care . . .
He was wonderful on the show; can't wait for next week!

Posted: 7/25/10 at 8:40pmI was one of the dozen of viewers who watched the sitcom "Some of My Best Friends" based on "Kiss Me Guido." Though it had just as many issues as anything Marc Cherry touches, Alec Mapa was the complete highlight. I recently saw the pilot on Comcast On Demand and I laugh the minute he shows up as Vern.
